Guest Reviews

Tarig (2/5): - Dirty Bad street Tax or Uber they don’t have access to the hotel I paid my money and I left to anther hotel
Endawoke (2/5): - I didn't check in to the hotel. The hotel was not accessible to customers. The road to the hotel was messed up due to road construction. There was raining and it was muddy. The ride was not able to drive to the hotel entrance. Then I returned back without entering to the hotel.
Muhammad (8/5): Satisfied - Satisfied
mustefa (4/5): - Lights turned off for significant amount of time during my stay.
Nebiyou (8/5): Na - The hotel was so nice and clean ,but the area where the hotel needs road that is good for taxi and for other car service and the hotel restroom door does not close , there is no doorknob , if their is smile in the bathroom , it will come to your bed
Verified traveler (10/5): - The hotel is off a dirt road and integrated with a local community. I personally didn't mind, and I felt it gave the hotel a more local feeling. The hotel facilities are great and the rate is very affordable. Overall my experience was great.
Verified traveler (10/5): - All good the room is very nice and the restaurant is good and stuff is very nice
Verified traveler (8/5): - Love the stuff very nice and kind plan on coming back in the future. Nice price for decent room
Leshem (2/5): - Bathroom door was broken. The hotel manage was rude. Street is dark and I didn't feel safe at night
Verified traveler (8/5): - Clean and quite new, but location is not top Nice staff.
Verified traveler (8/5): Overall good - Positive-good simple breakfast, staff were friendly, clean room. Good distance to town, bus station and approx 15-25mins to museums Negative- no lift, hot water cuts off after approx 6 mins so possibly on timer.
Verified traveler (6/5): - the staff and services was very good but the TV channels very bad and the bathroom old need fixed
Joel (10/5): Great place for the money. Fantastic service! - So my phone got stolen out of my pocket my first day walking around Meskel Square, but I can't hold the hotel staff responsible for that. The service was really fantastic. Members of staff lent me their personal phones to use and, when it was a cold night and I asked for an extra blanket, the staff remembered the next day and made the bed with the extra blanket again. I didn't sleep much due to jetlag and wild dogs barking intermittently at all hours of the night, but again, I can't hold the staff responsible for that. The hotel restaurant was good and reasonably priced. The only real flaws of this place were: 1. No one knows where it is (tell them it's near the Gollagul Tower), though I don't know if that's helpful if you yourself don't know where you're going. 2. The hotel is down a short stretch of really terrible road that taxis have to skillfully crawl over. Apparently, it's been like this for years. 3. The shower, while providing hot water, provided "Ethiopia-level" water pressure i.e. a trickle.
Geletaw Z (10/5): Thanks!!! - Happy to have a nice place to stay.
Stayedhere (6/5): - Electricity and the wifi is off for most of the day. For this hotel to be at a standard professional level, they have to have steady electricity. Other than this, hotel not bad
American (6/5): - Electricity and wifi off more than on with no fixing. what is the deal? It’s a hotel in 2019 with no regular working electricity? Room with kitchen is not a kitchen. It is a kitchen sink. Place and bathroom was clean and showers working. Breakfast not bad.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Great customer service but Weak/low speed WiFi Almost inaccessible by foot so a new road (asphalt) to the hotel replacing the current one would be nice.
Djordje (10/5): Great value for money, some maintenance needed - Overall, when comparing this hotel to other hotels in the same price range, this hotel is a great value for money. It's clean, has a convenient location, restaurant, free breakfast, Wifi all of which you would not necessarily expect when paying under 30 USD. The only thing I would advise the owner is to invest in more solid equipment, especially in the bathroom. The plastic toilet covers break, the soap holder falls off, the shower head is falling apart etc. It pays off in the long term...Also the access road is bumpy and not paved for the last 50-100 m, not much to do about it, just expect it.
Manindanchi (10/5): Clean rooms comfy bed reasonable price - It was amazing place given how cheap the price is. It was really clean, the staff was friendly, the breakfast was basic but for the price the hotel charges per night it's really good. We had a pleasant stay. I highly recommend this place 👌👌👌
Verified traveler (8/5): - Easily accessible from the main road. Lots of private taxis and other forms of transport
Anali (10/5): - The property was beautiful. I had a beautiful view of the city, on my balcony.
Hadis (4/5): - I never stay that hotel again. Everything is bad. Do not stay there
Awet (10/5): A good Hotel - It was very amazing Hotel and very friendly.
Verified traveler (10/5): - This place has great customer service, great breakfast buffet with several option and clean rooms. The place is near 22 and easy for transportation via taxi or driving to Bole or other attractions nearby.
Verified traveler (10/5): - Room very clean, supportive staff, amazing breakfast and high quality service. I would love to stay in this hotel in the future.
Abdirisak (8/5): Good but it can better - The breakfast (buffé) was good but with not soo much variety of meat. The other food that was on order was definitely not good and not cooked well. It has to be more professional cooking. Another thing was that in the website it said ”shuttle from to the airport included” was not true and there was no comment at all.
Verified traveler (6/5): - Usually, I have positive experience in Ag; however I requested the broken screen tv to be replaced and they never did. In addition hot water heater in bathroom not working and I requested a fix they agreed but didn't fix before checkout (freezing showers). internet connection incredibly poor (possibly network problems).
Verified traveler (2/5): Just bad overpriced motel - Not so great stay.. Breakfast is very little selection and low in quantity, and too oily..and on top the owner is right there with judging looking eyes when you are going to get breakfast.. Service is extremely poor, location is right in shanty area with poor access to cars.. This is just bed and breakfast type place with the owner and family living right there with the guests and hanging out in the lobby area leaving little comfort to guests.. Rooms are very very tiny and TV screen size is so small like 19 inch or so.. I would only stay in the place if the price is less than $10 per night..
Verified traveler (6/5): - The road front the hotel very bad and you will smell bad things from the cesspit.
Ikiki (10/5): - Great hotel! It’s very close to the airport and also to the city centr. Staffs were very helpful & friendly. I would recommend this great hotel to everyone. I’ll definitely comeback to AG palace hotel again. Thanks so much for your hospitality!
Fadhil (2/5): - Very bad location,very bad staff. Never book a hotel room till you see it. They will give you different from what you booked or show on website. Filthy dirty rooms things are old and falling apart. It’s ripped off all the way around.
Zvorak (8/5): - Hotel has excellent staff . We would stay again if coming to Addis Ababa.
Abdullah (10/5): My favourite hotel in Addis - Convenience, friendly etc etc
Ken (10/5): Great room for the price. - The staff was very nice. The breakfast was very good. The internet was intermittent. The room was very clean but a little run down. Overall I felt the hotel was a great deal for the price.
Solo (4/5): - Checked in and checked out the next day. The recetion lady did scan my passport and get the necssary info about me but i did not get recipt. They do not let you to lock your room and keep the key with you. Cause of this I did not feel safe, so i checked out the next day.
eilymelich (8/5): it was nice - the hotet was clean
JJ (8/5): - The hotel is fine. The hotel staff are welcoming and ready to assist. However, the hotel management should check on the quality of meals prepared.
Workineh (10/5): Nice clean hotel in the city centre - We stay in AG palace whenever we come to Addis for holiday. It’s always a pleasure to stay here. It’s easy to access the hotel from any corner of the city. The hotel is clean and well maintained and we got what we paid for. We enjoyed our complimentary breakfast.
Panda (8/5): - Access and security are very good. Stuff and guard man are staying 24 hours at the entrance. Some of facilities are a bit broken, and sometimes WIFI is not working. But every time, you can use hot water. Restaurant is expensive. You can enjoy cheaper and better dishes in the Afropolitan Hotel, the neighborhood of this hotel.
Chris (8/5): - The Owner & staff were friendly, accommodating & positive attitude! This was amazing! Everyone was friendly and willing to help when needed. WiFi was basically non-existing. It worked, but was spotty. I hardly used it, because it was so unreliable. Breakfast was basic. Rooms were comfortable. The location is Great, with the exception of the street it's located on. I would stay again, and I recommend for staying!
love (6/5): - They don’t provide any kit like toothbrush toothpaste shampoo but they’re charging higher as compare to other hotels
lovepreet (6/5): Nice hotel close to the shops and main road - Nice hotel staff is very friendly ..... it’s near to the shops and main road easy to go around and eating some delicious food
Verified traveler (8/5): Good for short stay - Overall a nice place for the price. However, lack of consistent hot water or electricity and weak WiFi makes it a little hard as a place for extended stay. Also, the place will be better if the front desk staff is a little more friendly to all guests (not just caucasians).
DONADAMS (10/5): friendy staff and good hotel ambience - My stay at the hotel was awesome.TO BEGIN WITH THE AMBIENCE OF THE HOTEL IS SUPER FINE, FRIENDLY STAFF READY TO GO AN EXTRA MILE TO MAKE YOUR STAY COMFORTABLE .ANOTHER GOOD THING IS THE OWNER IS ALWAYS AT THE HOTEL IN THE MORNING TO LISTEN TO ANY QUERIES.ROOMS AT THE HOTEL ARE CLEAN AND THE CLEANING IS DONE EVERYDAY,APART FROM FREQUENT POWER OUTAGE IN ADDIS , OVERALL ITS AN AMAZING PLACE THAT I WILL RECOMMEND ANY TIME OF DAY OR NIGHT.
Verified traveler (4/5): - The hotel needs to be updated. Cleanliness was minimal. The only thing nice about the place is the friendliness of most of the staff. There was one receptionist who seemed to have a bit of an attitude.
Verified traveler (8/5): Very friendly staff - Great service and home-made breakfast
Kynama (8/5): Solo Female Traveler - The hotel is fine overall. Yet, the carpet in the room was very dirty and old. At one time I am sure the hotel was very nice, but they have not kept up with maintenance. The door handle/lock on my room was falling off. When I mentioned it they said they would fix it the next day. They didn't offer to move me to another room, nor did they fix it. The shower holder was broken, no towel rack, and again, the carpet was horrible. The bathroom was clean. No room service, WIFI didn't work most of the time. Staff is pleasant and got a taxi for me. Food is typical of Ethiopia...not very good in my opinion.....very bland. Overall the stay was fine for a couple of nights. Basically quiet.
Malik (8/5): Accommodating staff - A mixup with the name was easily resolved with an email. The staff is welcoming and helpful. My room was surprisingly neat, clean and comfortable.
Franklin (6/5): - I was bit by bed bug for two nights. On the second night I was awaken by itching at midnight, I turned the table light on.Soon there came the second bit, this time I caught and killed the fat bug that filled with my blood. After more than an hour I fell asleep, but an hour later, I was bit and awoke again. Next morning I told the receptionist what was happened last night,she did not show surprise, neither said sorry for that. She just promised me that somebody would spread drug to kill the bugs. They did keep their promise, I got a sound sleep on the third night.
Abdelhafiz (10/5): Place of pleasure - It was amazing experience
William (8/5): Good - Stayed for one night and it did the job.
graham (10/5): The best - A warm welcome, helpful and friendly receptionist. Cheerful and excellent cook. Cold beer. What more do you need?
Will (10/5): Good place to stay in Addis - Ag Palace was a very nice place to stay in Addis Ababa. Clean room and bed. Generally quiet, and I'm pretty noise sensitive. Hot water was actually HOT. Wifi. A couple of minor loose fixture issues in the bathroom, but everything worked. room cleaning daily. The front desk staff was easy going, pleasant and helpful. Really nice people. One staff member went out of her way to help me buy a cellphone at a local stand. The free breakfast in the lobby was a pleasant bonus if ok food. Hotel location isn't exactly central but it isn't bad. it's a spread out city. As other reviews mention, hotel is on a bumpy dirt side-road. This might be offputting to some, but I didn't care really. This seems not uncommon in Addis: half the city seems unpaved. And I didn't have any trouble at any hour. The hotel will call a cab for you as needed and you negotiate the fare. Also, down the hill the road opens onto the major east/west avenue of addis, lots of cabs, with the caveat that explaining to Addis cabbies where you want to go takes some practice.. On the other side of the big ave (you have to cross down at the train stop) is a coffee place "Abyssinia" and a small supermarket in that same building which was handy for basic amenities.
Douglas Alan (10/5): Excellence in Hospitality in Addis Ababa - Excellent staff. Full service restaurant with excellent food and wide choice of food at fair prices. Very clean. Very honest people.
bilal (6/5): Close to the malls - It's close to the malls and to alot of eating places and close to the main road .
Verified traveler (2/5): No transportation access, very small place, - Very tight place, madly road to ward hotel, not clean
Aaron (10/5): Great hotel for a great price! - The staff is friendly and the hotel is very clean. It is very reasonably priced and has a good location near the airport. The restaurant is quite good and you can get other services such as massage, so I recommend this hotel to the budget traveler and for those who want to save a little money on a trip to Addis.
Cynthia (6/5): Nice hotel close to social amenities - I enjoyed my stay.. Plus the hotel staff were good and friendly..however you should improve on the bed (it was uncomfortable) and WiFi didn't work most times
Yahia (10/5): Beautiful City - Ag Hotel in Addis one of the wonderful experience and if I recommend a place in Addis will be Ag Hotel.
MAS (2/5): Not Good for Business - The hotel is not worth it- pictures and quite a number of reviews are misleading. Hotel is located in a rural-like area, road leading to hotel is unpaved, muddy and pumpy, rooms are overall small and unclean, carpet is dirty and hase been there for decades. You dont feel comfortable to walk barefoot on the room floor. I requested to get my room changed, the new room was no different. Towels and bed sheets are not white anymore- over used and over washed. I slept with my cloth on including my jeans and shirt. The wifi is very week and unstable. Staff are the only beautiful part of this hotel. Very politie and very helpless. One extra good thing is the hot water in the shower and tap. I dont recommend any one to stay in this hotel. Not worth the money and will insist for a refund of at least 50% of the room fees.
Amad (6/5): - over all good I give the hotel 3 stars
Khalid (8/5): Nice and clean location ok. - Staff friendly enough and breakfast just ok. appreciate cleanliness.
Verified traveler (6/5): nice quiet hotel for a visitor with work to do - I enjoyed my staff. Large comfortable staff and efficient staff
Verified traveler (6/5): Good money value. Nice staff and Ok room and food. - Good money value. Nice staff and Ok room and food.
Clifford (10/5): - The staff was helpful and friendly. The breakfast was very delicious.
Frederick (10/5): Economical and quiet hotel - Very quiet, good food, very reasonable price, friendly staff
Verified traveler (8/5): Comfortable and covenient - The hotel is on a street in a local neighborhood, and, therefore, is quiet. Some staff speak English well and are quite helpful; others try even though their English is limited. Good breakfast. The train is a few minutes walk away, and there are good directions for using it to get to the main sites. Shola Market is about a twenty-minute walk away. Good wi-fi. The only down side to the hotel is that there is no lift; so, if you are not yet adjusted to the altitude, the walk to the upper floors can be challenging.
Verified traveler (2/5): Hotel is in the middle of a rough area - Rooms are clean, food is not nice, staff is friendly, electricity is constantly off and generator makes some serious noise, WiFi is poor, road to hotel is unbelievable, that's if you can find the hotel,
Nathan (8/5): Okay - It was good but poor road /street.
Kristian (10/5): Great! - A great stay in a perfect location in Addis. This hotel has polite, attentive staff and a small feel to it. Rooms are clean and in good repair. The bed was American sized in length which is a huge asset and the place is located clsoe to everything you need including the lite-rail just a minute walk away.
Yousif (10/5): - Very good location and freindly staff
Zunaid (2/5): Dirty, smelly, leaking bathroom, broken wi-fi - I vacated this hotel after spending just a few hours in the room. The hotel was so terrible that we could not even spend one night there and Left to find another hotel. The bathroom had a leak from somewhere so the floor was completely wet. The hotel did not offer to fix the problem, instead electing to mop up the water, which returned after an hour. The bedside lamp on one side had a broken mechanism so could not be switched on. The internet/wifi was not working from the moment we got there, despite assurances that it was "working, but very slow". On multiple devices we were unable to use the internet or apps. The general upkeep of the room was bad, with carpet stains, stale smell, etc. The alternate room they offered was previously used by a smoker as a smoke smell permeated the room and there were cigarette burns on the carpet. Also, one bedside lamp had a lampshade and light fitting that were physically broken at the neck, so that the light bulb hung over its side, potentially very dangerous electrocution risk as the wires were exposed. The general attitude of the staff was simply too relaxed for the sheer terribleness of the experience we had. They were not proactive at all (e.g., no attempt to get a plumber or any explanation re the bathroom leak) and whenever I walked down to reception to address another issue, the lobby was unmanned and I had to find the staff at the back.
Verified traveler (4/5): Too far from the city - Hotel was not bad but the location was to far from the city+ Internet was bad and no power,
Anthony (8/5): Nice hotel but quite a way from Bole Airport - Surprising good for a pretty run down area in a poverty-stricken city. But it was a long way from the centre of town and not as close to the airport as they made out on the website and hard to find.
Addimas (8/5): - I have enjoyed my stay.
Verified traveler (8/5): Great deal in an increasingly expensive city - The wifi is fast, the place is comfortable, the price is very reasonable, and the kitchen, reception, and housekeeping staff are friendly and helpful. I was feeling ill for a good part of my stay, and the staff made sure I was comfortable and had what I needed.
Biggles (10/5): - Only stayed one night....wished it could have been longer
rebekah (8/5): Good hotel good price! - Nice hotel. Nothing fancy but clean, safe and comfortable. No elevator or floor level rooms from what I can see so keep that in mind if you need those services. I really enjoyed this hotel. It is on a local street that is not paved and might seem a little ify for Westerners but it is totally safe! Just beware that local taxi drivers might not know the place but they will get you there eventually. They may just have to ask for directions. No actual hotel shuttle but they arranged a taxi for us. I will be staying here again.
Hazel (6/5): Small and friendly - Friendly staff, clean, comfortable room in quiet hotel not too far from central Addis.
money (2/5): Zero star hotel - Poor food standard lighting issue wife problems and some staffs had poor customer service skills
Jules (6/5): Good hotel, excellent staff. - Although the hotel was far from our daily activities we enjoyed the friendliness of the staff. The food was in abundance and always delicious. The manager was most professional and assisted rapidly with a minor bathroom issue. We will certainly recommend this hotel to our friends.
todd (6/5): Nice hotel - The hotel is a nice quiet hotel but after staying in a room on the 2nd floor and then staying in a room on the 4th floor, I feel that the lower floors are maintained a lot better than the upper floors! If I was to stay there again I would request a room on the lower floors
Andreas (8/5): There is a tram connection - The hotel is not in the city Center, but there is a good connection with the tram to the City Center (not to the Airport). However, this tram may be overcrowded. The price for a yellow taxi from the Airport to the Hotel is about 300 birr.
Clearcape (4/5): Small, cheap, isolated - You get what you pay for ... but you can still get better than this. The management won't even pay for a sign on the hotel so the taxi drivers can find it. I wasted more time getting back to this hotel than I wanted just because of this.
Todd (8/5): Very enjoyable visit - Hotel was excellent, staff attended to pretty much every need I had I will definitely stay there whenever possible on future visits
Verified traveler (2/5): Absolutely Ridiculous - I have no idea what the place looks like inside as I di dnot even enter. I chose to walk away even after paying. It is absolutely out in the middle of no where, down a dirt road in the outskirts of Addis. You would never find a taxi in the neighbourhood, let alone a restaurant or anything endearing.
Ian Marshall uk (8/5): Great hotel - Very welcoming staff reception and bar staff and restaurant a very pleasant stay would recomened.
Verified traveler (8/5): Terrific service, great restaurant, clean rooms - I spent two weeks at this hotel during a recent humanitarian trip to Addis. Genet and her team run a tight ship and the service was excellent. When my bags were lost by Ethiopian Air, Ganet helped me track them with the airline and then found a great driver to help me replace my lost clothes. The rooms were very clean and attended to by the cheerful cleaning staff. The room had a refrigerator, hot pot and coffee service. This hotel is very close to two major roads, by the access road on which the hotel is located is in very poor condition. I've heard that it is scheduled to be paved, but it is currently gravel and there are some shanties nearby. Addis isn't a town that many tourists feel comfortable roaming around on foot, so the road isn't really much of an issue. I kept a card for the hotel in my wallet and had my drivers call for directions for the first few days. After that, I could easily direct them on my own. We frequently walked to nearby restaurants at night and didn't have any problems, although it's quite dark and inexperienced travelers might not be comfortable doing that. I was actually amazed how little attention people paid to us. In other African nations where I've travelled the harassment can be quite overwhelming. Not so in Addis. The restaurant is better than expected and offers local, western and eastern dishes. The included breakfast featured pancakes, fruit, cereal, and more than a dozen other multinational dishes. Great value!
Francois (8/5): AG Palace in Addis Abeba - Stayed 2 weeks, good wifi when no cuts, restaurant is decent while could include a bit more vegetable and salade and less french fries!
Verified traveler (8/5): Nice hotel that answers your needs - the hotel is very good and the staff is kind and helping. the Hotel is stuck a little bit in between streets in addis so its hard to find it but in general I had a very good stay
Noam (8/5): Great hotel, medium location - New, spotless and comfortable room. Great breakfast, service with a smile.
yocchan (6/5): Shower problem - I think this hotel is totally good except the shower water problem. shower water is leaking from the shower room, so it's uncomfortable to go to the toilet after taking a shower. they should repair the shower room.
Maureen (6/5): adults only - I booked for my husband and daughter as I stayed here before. Sadly, staff didn't respond very well having a child at the hotel. It was booked as one adult and one child aged one. Apparently, the hotel staff refused to clean the room. How can I do anything? The room was paid in full in advance and I am working in my country. It is as if the hotel can hold you to ransom and treat you any way they feel. I have booked many hotels on your website so I find this attitude horrendous.
Verified traveler (2/5): Stay elsewhere - I stay in Addis for a week every month. Due to a large international conference many places were fully booked and so I stayed here. I won't be going back it was the worst hotel I've stayed in Addis.
Gloria (8/5): Nice hotel but poor access road - A great hotel but access to it was difficult indeed. It may be a bit overvalued because of this. The administration was a bit bureaucratic. Imagine waking me up for 30 cents due to the hotel's mistake!!! But there was hot water, wifi access and a clean room. This hotel should not cost more than 40 dollars.
Verified traveler (10/5): Varey good - Good
Beya Adamu (10/5): Very Nice Hotel - Perfect place to stay at. Front desk staff is very friendly and welcoming. Hotel was very clean as well as the room and obviously newly renovated.
Tyrelle (8/5): Great Value - basic no frills hotel with everything you would need at a great price. The only knock would be the location of the hotel. It is on a back dirt road away from the main street. Some cabs have a hard time finding it because of its secluded location. Overall a good stay.
Paul (6/5): A little hot for someone from non-tropical zone. - That's my first visit to Addis Ababa, I think my experience of heat might be a little beyond the accommodation. The hotel is nice, But they may do something about ventilation or air-conditioning to make people from temparate zone to feel more at home. Again my experinece of heat might depend on the season. Somebody who visits the place during wet/rainy season shall surely have a different note.
Freeze (6/5): Very affraid first but reassured in the end - I was thinking that the hotel was in a nice place. Arrived in Bole airport at 2:00 pm I took a taxi, when the taxi turned in a dark and a bad road i began to be afraid. But non problem we get the hotel I entered in my room. The hotel did not say that it was in a dark and bad place. That is my only blame on this hotel.
